Work Authorization for Family through Physical Therapist Category

Question details

Can I get work authorization for my family if I apply through the physical therapist category?

ANSWER

The physical therapist category just allows you to skip the PERM/the Labor Authorization part. It does not render you or make you exempt from the rest of the requirements of immigration law. Immigration law requires that, in order for you or your family to get work authorization through the Green Card process, your priority date must be current. When the priority date becomes current, that’s when the family will get their work authorization.
